Thanks for warning me about the upgrade. :/

If you want to determine whether it's the global appmenu making your tabs disappear, try opening a terminal and starting DrRacket this way:

    export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=drracket
    drracket

That should disable the global menu for DrRacket. It does in 11.04, anyway. Can both of you reply and say whether that got your tabs back?

If it does, I'll bet appmenu thinks the tabs are part of the main menu based on their window class.

Noticed the same problem (screenshot attached).

FWIW, it seems that Unity is based on Gtk+3, if I am not mistaken, as is
Gnome3 (the other default interface).

    I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10 and have noticed some pretty
    serious glitches in the graphics of DrRacket.  Most notably tabs are
    no longer visible but are select-able.  Meaning, if I click where
    the tabs should be, it'll switch tabs.  I'm assuming this has
    something to do with the Unity UI.

    The bug is present in both 5.1.3 installed from the PPA and when
    running a version compiled from the github master branch (version
    5.2.0.1--2011-10-15(cb6a712/g) ).

    Other than that, I haven't noticed anything bad.  With 11.04
    scrolling through source was terrible.  If you held down the up or
    down arrow it would pretty much buffer the movement to the point
    where when you let go of the arrow it would continue to move.  That
    seems to be fixed with the upgrade to 11.10.

    I'm assuming this is mostly an issue related to Unity and the global
    menu bar, but I'm not really sure how to go about working around it
    short of switching to a different desktop UI or OS.  Any help would
    be appreciated.
